If Zhang Tie drank water at this moment, he would definitely be choked by Bai Suxian's question.
'I've told this woman my big secret honestly. What's this woman thinking about after knowing this secret? Is she thinking about the age gap between us? Is she worried about my old age? '
It seemed that this woman had never thought about Zhang Tie's concern. However, Zhang Tie was choked by her concern.
However, Zhang Tie knew that Bai Suxian was not joking with him; instead, she was really nervous. Women were women, including female knights. In many cases, women's thoughts were completely irrelevant to their battle strength. If Zhang Tie was ambiguous on this issue, this woman might take it too hard and do something bad.
"No!" Zhang Tie replied with a solemn look.
"Really?" Bai Suxian asked.
"I really won't. If I did, how could we still be together now? My body-changing divine bloodline changed my body shape, not my taste and vision!" Zhang Tie pulled Bai Suxian's hand and kissed it as he watched Bai Suxian seriously, "Additionally, you don't look old at all. You're almost as old as Linda; instead, you look mature and charming."
"Who's Linda?"
"One of my wives!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Bai Suxian's face turned red at once. She didn't mind that Zhang Tie had a wife at all; instead, she kissed Zhang Tie's face. Closely after that, she covered her mouth and giggled like a bashful girl, which made Zhang Tie dumbfounded.
Zhang Tie was really speechless about such an outcome and why Bai Suxian could accept his original identity so fast. He didn't know whether he should blame himself for being too careful or Bai Suxian was different than commoners or Bai Suxian always liked eating tender grass. Therefore, she felt pretty stimulated by his original look.
However, Zhang Tie didn't need to think about it anymore.
After watching Zhang Tie for quite a while and looking over Zhang Tie from head to toe, Bai Suxian suddenly recalled something, "Oh, haven't your wanted order been canceled? Why don't you show your original look?"
Zhang Tie slightly frowned, "I have some concerns!"
"What concerns?"
"The culprit on the back of the tragedy in Fuhai City has not been caught. Additionally, this catastrophe in Zhongzhou Province is also aroused by the culprit on the back of the tragedy in Fuhai City. That culprit's ability is completely out of my imagination. Additionally, he has many arrangements in Taixia Country. As long as Zhang Tie's real identity is exposed, his movements would be too eye-catching in Taixia Country..." Zhang Tie thought for a second before revealing a more terrifying news, "Additionally, I'm over 80% sure that the culprit has colluded with demons and is hiding in Xuanyuan Hill. He might be one of the 9 ministers of Taixia Country. That person might be the mysterious master of Heavens Reaching Church who has not shown up yet. With the identity of Cui LI, if I investigate that culprit secretly, it would be less likely to arouse the attention of that culprit. If I expose my real identity, I'm afraid that it would be impossible!"
If I show my original look, I'm afraid that it would not work anymore! "Bai Suxian was evidently shocked by Zhang Tie's news. Compared to the news that Zhang Tie had awakened his body-changing immortal bloodline and had a mysterious secret method that could simulate the effect of other secret methods, Zhang Tie's news was like detonating a nuclear bomb.
One of the top 9 chancellors of Taixia Country in Xuanyuan Hill might be the mysterious Heavens Reaching Hierarch; additionally, he colluded with demons and arranged bloody sea in Zhongzhou Province, even other provinces of Taixia Country. This news would definitely arouse a magnitude 10 earthquake if it was released to the public.
Bai Suxian didn't ask how Zhang Tie could be so sure about this news. Because she knew that Zhang Tie was not reckless. Even when they fought side by side in the Earth-elements Realm, Zhang Tie was not reckless, not to mention now. Additionally, now that Zhang Tie didn't even hide his real identity from her, he would never joke with her about such a thing. As long as such a joke was exposed to the public, it would be a catastrophe, which would not benefit either her or Zhang Tie.
Bai Suxian didn't ask why Zhang Tie was so sure that one of the 9 chancellors of Taixia Country had a problem. As a smart woman, she knew that she should behave herself when staying with Zhang Tie. Everyone had their secrets, even her dad Lord Guangnan had his secrets. He would not tell her everything, not to mention others. Bai Suxian had been very satisfied with what Zhang Tie had revealed to her today. She knew that Zhang Tie had already treated her as one of his own.
After thinking about it for a short while, Bai Suxian's face turned unprecedentedly solemn, "What do you plan to do now? Are you going to hide in the identity of Cui LI? "
Zhang Tie shook his head with a bitter smile, "Previously, I thought that as long as I didn't show up, the culprit would let go of Huaiyuan Palace and my family members; however, what happened in Jinwu City a few days ago told me that I was too naive. Even though I didn't show up, that culprit still dispatched killers to Jinwu City to assassinate my father and kill my family members; additionally, he almost succeeded. There's something that I couldn't avoid. It's useless for me to hide all the time. These days, I've been thinking whether the culprit would not target Huaiyuan Palace and Zhang family too much if I expose the identity of Cui LI as Zhang Tie and my trump cards that I've promoted to an earth knight and awakened immortal bloodline to the public."
"Do you regret it?"
"A bit!" Zhang Tie put it straightforwardly without feeling any shame. Watching the clouds outside the airboat with a bit confused look, he said in a low voice with a bit fury, "I've been thinking about this question during these years. I'm just a small black iron knight. There are at least 180,000 people like me in Taixia Country. How could I be so f * cking unlucky to encounter such a thing the moment I came to Taixia Country? Being targeted by such a person, he wants to kill me as soon as possible. I think there's only one reason, namely, I've completely offended that person by killing a shadow demon and destroying the Heavens Reaching Church in Youzhou Province when I just served as the dean of the Provincial Court of Youzhou Province. As a result, he felt a bit threatened by me. Therefore, he set up a trap to kill me!"
"F * ck, if I knew that the situation facing Taixia Country could be so complex, I should not have worked so hard when I returned to Taixia Country. I admit that I have the Gobbling Party as my enemy. Because it's the resentment of my forefather. As a descendant of Huaiyuan Palace, I carry that person's bloodline. Therefore, I have to shoulder the resentment of Huaiyuan Palace no matter how bitter and tiring it is. However, what about offending the Heavens Reaching Church?"
"It's none of my business if Taixia Country is in chaos; it's none of my business if that culprit wants to rebel; it's none of my business if the master of Heavens Reaching Church wants to be Emperor Xuanyuan; it's none of my business if people are in misery and suffering. It's just death. This father has witnessed the death of hundreds of millions of people and the extermination of over 100 countries in Waii Sub-continent. I've climbed out of piles of corpses many times; however, I didn't lose a hair. What about this? How many people could die in Youzhou Province?"
"The moguls in Xuanyuan Hill don't worry about it; the major clans in Taixia Country don't worry about it; the Gobbling Party doesn't worry about it; the crown prince doesn't worry about it; the 7 top sects don't worry about it; even the missing Emperor Xuanyuan doesn't worry about it. What the f * ck am I? Why do I have to be involved in such a swirl and implicate my family members? Additionally, I'm wanted by the Supreme Court of Taixia Country and become a rat on the street that everybody wants to beat. I've been hiding all day long and almost died. If I had known this, this father would have returned to Taixia Country and lived a peaceful life with my wife and kids.
Do I owe Taixia Country a copper coin? Why do I have to worry about Taixia Country? Why do I have to suffer such injustice for Taixia Country? Why do I have to run away like a dog and not even see my family members for a few years? I don't even know how my son looks like. How old are my parents? Why do I have to worry about me and implicate them? My dad was almost assassinated and almost couldn't see me even before he died? My mom's hair has turned white over the past 4 years. F * ck … "Translator's Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Translator: WQL Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Translator: WQL Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Translator: WQL Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Translator: WQL Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Motherf * cker... "Zhang Tie's resentment, unpleasantness and grievances for so many years were fully released at this moment. When he talked about his family members, his dad was almost killed by someone and his mom's hair had turned white, Zhang Tie's eyes turned red as he couldn't stand dropping off his tears. If he didn't say it, few people in Taixia Country could understand his grievances. If he could stay with his family members, who the f * ck would like to be a wanted criminal? Who would like to live a shady life? Especially when his family members were worried about him and being implicated by him, Zhang Tie felt pretty guilty...
Men would not easily shed tears unless they were deeply hurt.
Watching Zhang Tie dropping off his tears, Bai Suxian dropped off her tears too. At this moment, watching her beloved man dropping off his tears in front of her, Bai Suxian felt her heart being burned by the burning incense. It was her first time to drop off such tears for a man in her life...
Not until this moment did Bai Suxian understand how much burden Zhang Tie was carrying. Behind his majestic and cheerful look, Zhang Tie actually felt bitter, wronged and guilty. When this man's song "Beloved Ones" was spread across the country and this man was wanted after making meritorious deeds for Taixia Country, very few people across Taixia Country could understand the stress and pain that this man was bearing.
Bai Suxian felt that she really understood her man at this moment. This man was real and vivid. Besides being admirable, he was also lovable and distressing.
Bai Suxian smiled with tears as she wiped off Zhang Tie's tears by hand, "I know you're just saying it out of anger. If you could choose again, you would still do what you did as the dean of the Provincial Court of Youzhou Province without demur. Even though it was dangerous, you would still do it so as to save some commoners in Taixia Country like those commoners that you knew in Blackhot City. Those commoners are your neighbors, teenagers who grew up with you in Blackhot City, teachers and classmates. You wouldn't watch them die in front of you; neither would you watch them die for no reason, would you?"
Zhang Tie became silent as Bai Suxian's words completely touched his heart. Those words were indeed his way of venting his anger. If he could choose again and know that Heavens Reaching Church was going to stir up trouble in Youzhou Province and that Master Jiang was a shadow demon, he would still kill all these dregs without demur. Although it was for the sake of Taixia Country, this reason was too far-fetched. However, Zhang Tie really didn't want to see those commoners being involved in such a chaotic situation and dying for no reason.
Bai Suxian's words completely touched Zhang Tie's heart.
In this world, everything was unpredictable. There might be a great darkness in the brightness; however, there might be a surprise in the dilemma.
If Zhang Tie met his sons again, he would tell them — — Who could say that the one who drugged you with aphrodisiac in the Earth-elements Realm might be the first confidante that you met in Taixia Country?
Zhang Tie let out a deep sigh. After venting his feelings just now, Zhang Tie became reassured and clear his mind. He suddenly figured something out and made a decision in a split second.
Zhang Tie wiped off Bai Suxian's tears tenderly as he said, "After this event, we will go back to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory no matter what the result is. As Taixia Country is so large, some things really couldn't be determined by me alone. In my current position, if I think too much about some things, I would only seek troubles for myself. We only need to adapt to circumstances with a clear conscience. 3 years later, when you pass the mourning period, I will propose for you in Lord Guangnan's Mansion and marry you so that you can become my woman and marry into Zhang Clan aboveboard, how about that?"
How about that? "Bai Suxian watched Zhang Tie as she couldn't stand to drop off tears once again. She kept nodding forcefully. Although she had dreamt about such a day, she was afraid that this man would look down upon her. Therefore, she felt pretty perturbed inside. However, she had not imagined that this day could come so fast. In the blink of an eye, her expectation had come true. Bai Suxian's heart was filled with sweetness and happiness at once.
The airboat was still covered with clouds and mist. Faint thunders could be heard from time to time. Watching the scenery outside the airboat, Zhang Tie became a bit relaxed. Watching the scenery outside the airboat, Zhang Tie revealed a faint smile as his eyes flickered with profound brilliance as if he could see through the future …
In less than 1 hour, they had arrived at Pingsha Valley... (To be continued)
